Balance tries to find and create a natural equilibrium within the digital environment. Are there „empty“, self-developing and growing, virtual spaces that are not trying to overload us with information, but rather letting us find our own thoughts within this artificial surrounding? Imagine to visit a museum with your headphones on listing to dreamy, atmospheric music and you end up in front of a digital mountain, breathing fresh air, feeling the wind on your skin. A vision of a futuristic nature experience, which is not only critical but feels even more real to us than we like to admit to ourselves.

The Ark is a site specific installation, commissioned by and presented during Proyecta Oaxaca, festival de diseño y artes digitales.

The Ark is built around the cacti that line the Aljibe, at the heart of the Ethnobotanical Garden of Oaxaca.

Adopting a poetic approach, The Ark gives voice to the garden’s plants, participants in the work, the beating heart of the space and an unpredictable choir.

Telling their story, revealing their fantasised and fantastical character, The Ark is the mise-en-abîme of the trail. A three part audio-visual installation, it unfolds like a movie set in space, in which the wandering spectator plays the role of the camera.

Proyecta Oaxaca
On the invitation of Proyecta Oaxaca, several artists from the ANTIVJ visual label have devised four visual and sonic works to be installed at the heart of the Ethnobotanical Garden in Oaxaca. Conceived of as a trail of light, these in-situ works offered the chance to (re)discover a singular and magical location in a particularly unique way – by opening the garden to the public at night.

A trail of the senses, in several variations, it also presents spectators the perspective of four artists on this atypical space, in which ancient nature and new technology come face to face, like a distant echo of the ancestral techniques that have allowed for its conservation.
